Marvellous Moths

They flutter around on a cotton cloth,
They’re like butterflies but are called Moth.
For hours and hours they sit on an angle,
It always looks like they are in a tangle.
Moths are really congenial creatures,
Moths have many amazing features.
Even though they live for only thirty days,
They do incredible things instead of laze,
They might like the light
But what is the problem to be bright?
Just because they eat your tissue,
It cannot be too much of an issue.
Moths have beautiful patterns,
Just like the rings on Saturn.
Whenever a lantern is lit
A moth will be around for more than a bit.
